Isn't it obvious? Climate change. It's causing all kinds of havoc: droughts, floods, hurricanes and misses.

Let's just throw some money at it! "How dare you?"  😜

Turn it over to Al Gore, he will fix it for you for a huge price.

I feel it is because I am not leading them enough when they are running sideways across the stage.

That will make the targets jump. Classic Pavlovian conditioning.

Don't forget the gravitational pull of the moon. The Lunar Pull also causes washboardy roads.

Hitting pistol targets with the rifle and vise versa?

Lack of fundamentals. You have to use your basic fundamentals, trigger control, sight alignment, etc...

Because you can't miss fast enough to win. 

Wyatt Earp said that.

In this game misses happen for the same reason no one but bystanders ever got shot in a saloon.. An excited cowpoke yanking on the trigger! :lol:

Senior ears and dead targets.

Sometimes the occult…

Squibs…

Most targets are cut with way too much empty space around the edges.

Pistol Batteries weak.

Perhaps it’s the hole in the ozone layer or maybe irregularities in the VanAllen Belt!

On the serious side; improper grip or positioning a long gun on your shoulder, jerking the trigger, swinging past the target, poor stance, trying to go too fast.

Beeper goes..."Beep"

Brain goes ..."Beep"

Trigger finger goes..."Beep"

Gun goes ..."Beep" (chinese for bang)

Target goes..."I dont speak chinese"

Stopping to talk or whistling Dixie?

Stopping to talk is rarely cause for a miss... Whistling anything is another matter.
